<searches through the tool chest and finds a sense of humor for the OP> a quick suggestion if you use this when browsing on this site things will seem much better.

Personally, aside from wanting the play Barbie type, if your grammar and spelling are that bad in an email or message you send out to a prospective sub, she might be "turned off" by that. I know I certainly would be, and might read your email but wouldn't bother to respond.

I'm not even going to mention your complete arrogance and classlessness relative to your BBW comments.

Remember one thing: I may be fat, but I'm intelligent. I can lose weight. Gaining intelligence might be difficult given your arrogance.

Very well said, Dragonslave!! I agree - bad grammer, puncuation and spelling are very off-putting in an email - but having said that if the person can obviously think and hold a decent conversation i would try to overlook all that. After all, lack of education does not equate to lack of intelligence.
I feel it is only fair to reply to emails if someone has taken the time to actually write to you - and i think it is rude to not give any response. But sometimes people get overloaded.
And a note to the OP - i also read peoples posts before i respond to them - and unfortunately, your posts in this thread do not show you in a favorable light.

Interesting responses - some profiles get more tolerance than others. At least he's open about his beliefs, and he's genuinely looking for someone.

Besides, with the range of likes and desires on this site, it's not unreasonable to hope to find someone. And frustrating when you can't. All you can do is keep looking.

This site is a little unusual in regard to personal contacts. We had hoped to meet other likeminded couples to play and hang out with. Sent a few messages, responded to others...and then nothing.We usually follow up once but that's about it. I just don't understand why folks who seem interested in meeting (not even playing) suddenly go silent when you suggest a time or place. I contrast that to other sites we are on where meeting is kind of the point of the discussion.

Thoughts? I'd be interested in the perspective of others.

I've dealt with a few people who claimed to be local but actually weren't, and thus could never meet. I understand that this is very common.

I've dealt with more than my fair share of people who want to meet in either my or their own private domicile to play, and have no intention of setting foot in the club I prefer all initial play to happen. All of the sudden they're not "willing to do anything" I want, "fulfill any fantasies" I want: they're shy, they're body-conscious, they're far more discreet than they ever mentioned in their profiles or initial email back and forth.

A few people have sounded good initially, but as I've mailed them back and forth I've realized that we wouldn't get on, and I've told them so.

I have, thus far, met one person through CollarMe since I've been here, and that meeting didn't pan out. *shrug* At this point, I'm counting it as a success that I even met anyone.
